Reduce heat as much as possible without eliminating it altogether.
Add flour all a once. Stir briskly until mixture forms a ball that no
longer leaves the sid of the saucepan, but no longer. Remove from
heat. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition until
mixture is stiff and glossy. Drop by spoonful into deep, hot fat
